A Rose By Any Other Name…

Oh gold…why have we forsaken you?
Gold is one of those metals that is classic, but lately, it’s been given rather short shrift, hasn’t it? Does anybody remember the Sex and the City episode where Aidan gave Carrie an engagement ring, and she was upset that it wasn’t platinum? When her friends protested that she loved gold, she replied, “Yeah! Ghetto gold for fun! But this is my engagement ring!”
She wasn’t alone in thinking that way.
I say, it’s LONG past due for gold to make a resurgence. It’s warm, it’s elegant, it’s rich-looking, and it’s flattering to the complexion.
And you know what kind of gold is REALLY underappreciated? Rose gold. Rose gold is the most unabashedly romantic-looking gold. Warm and girly, but underscored by unassailable class and grace, it’ll lend a whole new feel to your wardrobe and your outlook.
Behold — rose gold!
